Good location, nice pools. nothing to much wrong with it but nothing special more

This was our second trip to Phuket and we decided to not stay in Patong this time, but to stay out a little to escape the frenzy of Patong. The Merlin was simply amazing! From the moment we checked in, we were greeted by a lovely staff member who gave us a wet towel and a refreshing drink (which was... more

This was our 2nd visit after staying there in 2006. Were worried that it would disapoint after we loved it so much the first time but it was just as good. Such a lovely relaxed atmosphere - staff very unobtrusive and obliging. Beautiful gardens and 3 spectacular pools. Breakfasts fantastic. Rooms very clean and comfortable. Beach is more a rocky... more

After reading many reviews about the Merlin Beach Resort both good and not so good I was really confused. For those of you who complained I don't know what the hell you expected. Merlin reached all of our expectations and more. The location only 5 mins out of Patong (and 200-250 baht by taxi) was a blessing loved to go... more

Resort is unbelievable, rooms great, clean, pools, grounds immaculate and beach good fun even if you don't... more

We stayed here for 10 nights in September 2009. We chose the resort because it was just out of the main part of Patong, some might say this makes it a less desirbale destination because you need to travel but it suited us. There is a hotel shuttle (which doesn't run very often) or else a tuk-tuk or taxi is... more

The beach front was nice but be careful of the hermit crabs in... more
